Ishrat Afreen's Voice in South Asian Poetic Tradition
No full textI analyzed the work of Pakistani poet Ishrat Afreen and the way her poetry engages with classical poetic themes and forms in order to protest the political injustices women faced in 1980s Pakistan. She both uses and redefines various modes of South Asian poetic tradition, such as the ghazal form and themes of nature, the body, and the divine. My project also compared her work with poems by Muhammad Iqbal, who stands as a figure most poets in the region and time period would see as an upholder of the South Asian literary canon. She melds historic technique with contemporary content to speak out against the Hudud Ordinances and the control created over women's bodies and sexualities.Modern and Classical Languages, Department ofHonors Colleg
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
No full textThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
Variations on the Author
No full text“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
No full textWe provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis
An Intelligent IoT based Wireless Sensor Network for Monitoring Water Quality by using RNN in Real-Time
No full textAbstract: Water uses is increasing day by day. As development continues, the demand for water is increasing. Water is require for daily routine, for irrigation, for fish and wildlife and for industrial use, not only water but pure water is require. This is a helpful approach to make people or authorities aware and alert about water quality in real-time situation. In this paper, the proposed technology helps to monitor the water quality in real time situation or environment. The technology such as Internet of Things, Wireless Sensor Networkand Cloud Computingare used in this approach for water quality parameters (pH, minerals and Temperature) measuring in real-time environment. For water quality prediction and analysis, a training data set has been prepared and these training data sets use for categorize utility of water in different field. The sensor sensed the water parameters and send this sensed value to the cloud server for processing. These data compared with training data set. In this paper monitor data classify by using Naive Bayes and the utility of water can be predicted by Recurrent Neural Network. The resultant of this proposed approach are: it gives high accuracy and the response time of this approach is very less comparatively.Published By: Blue Eyes Intelligence Engineering and Sciences Publication (BEIESP)

Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
No full textWe conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued
use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation
counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more
sophisticated methods
koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist
No full textWe have done our best to complete the author checklist relating to the use of animals in the hut study. Note that the objective for the hut study was to evaluate the IRS treatment applications for residual efficacy against Anopheles mosquitoes, including the local An. coluzzii mosquito population. Cows were only used to attract mosquitoes into the huts and no tests were carried out directly on the cows. The author checklist is intended for use with studies where experiments are carried out on animals, which is why we have had such difficulty in completing this for the hut study, as many of the questions do not relate to how the cows were used
